Abstract
The following case report details the presentation of a left maxillary painless expansile lesion in a five-year-old female that was proven to be desmoplastic fibroma (DF) of the maxilla, which was treated via a conservative excision. Given the paucity of DF cases in the Maxillofacial literature, there are no formally agreed-upon guidelines for the treatment of DF, especially in the maxillary sinus. A thorough review of the literature was completed and discussed, highlighting the correlation of DF with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) and the proposed treatment when encountered in the maxillary sinus of a pediatric patient.
